git - Pull a commit into another branch exactly (without merging) -

i have structure similar below:

c1 -- c2  --  c3                \ -- c4 

i want pull c3 on on top of c4. (nb: c3 & c3a hold save files)

c1 -- c2  --  c3                \ -- c4 -- c3a 

if try merge or pull told date.

how can force 're-merge' can c3 on top?

in current branch, don't think can since c3 merged in branch.

you can try cherry-picking commits on new branch though, should give desired results:

1. first, create new branch:

   git checkout -b new_branch <c1> 

2. now cherry pick c4 on new_branch:

   git cherry-pick c4 

3. now cherry pick c# on new_branch:

   git cherry-pick c3 

the above should give desired results in new_branch:

c1 -- c2  --  c3   \-- c4  -- c3
